Interesting article 0How RP could win

[Carole]

Found this article interesting. Have not watche the film "Spoiler" yet, but will later.
I have no opinion on this at this time, just bringing it to folks' attention who might be interested.


There is a poll there also about third party and RP. Results are not what I expected.

Seems like a good article, but I don't like the title of the article. "How Ron Paul Can Win" - and it then goes on to explain how third parties can win.

How Ron Paul Can Win? How about, as a Republican candidate, smart guy?

Latest poll shows, what, 13%? That's an extremely competitive number at this stage of the game. I'm kind of (actually a lot, if you can't tell) getting sick of this.

Good points. I tend to agree with you on that. If he wins as a Republican, the party goes conservative. If he wins as Independent, Republican party is dead perhaps.

He speaks near the end of RP as "the" candidate in a "third" party run. One good point made was that the VP running mate would have to be very strong since RP would likely do a one term.

I was a little surprised by the "third" party poll next to the article.
